All right now all you kits and kats it is time to spit the facts about what went down on Thursday night. It was a spectacle of super stellar saucer slingers stepping to the plate and delivering disc golf fate. We saw a total head count of 70 peeps with nothing but disc golf glory on their agenda. With a night of survivor style play I knew we were in a for a treat of low scores and high spirits. And the crew that arrived did not disappoint. We saw -19, -18, -17, -16, -15, -14.......... you get the picture. It was a sight to be seen and night to not be forgotten. Lets see how it played out.
Winning the night with a near perfect showing of -19 was the dynamic duo of Luke Jenks and Brenden (now I'm in first place overall) Motte. They slayed the course and survived the night. Nice shooting boys. Up next on podium was Sam Benson and Mack (sitting in 2nd on the leaderboard) Ngo with a -18 showing. Rounding out the top 3 teams was 2019 Dubs Champion Chase Estep and Nick Taylor with a -17 display. Way to get after it on the course. 18 of the 35 teams tossed for double digits during week 2. The competition is stellar and the baskets are taking a beating. Just like we want. Damn Skippy!
The Top Flight Longest Smash of the Season contest kicked it up a notch this last week. We had to makes of over 100ft!! Brian Pond make a longest distance connection of 116ft on hole 14b. But that was not the longest of the night. Emiliano 'Mili' Haynes thought birdie was out of the question at 165ft away. But his toss was true and the basket caught his throw. He has set the mark to beat at 165ft. But there are still 12 weeks left to improve that distance. Who will challenge this mark? For now, Mili has the hold on the $50 cash prize. But it could be you. When your partner gives you the green light, step on the gas and make the magic happen. Good toss Mili.
Our 2 sponsored disc golfers this week week went as follows -
Oregon Sports and Family Chiropractic Competitor – Skyler Park (Thank you Branden Garland!)
Grit Discs Grinder – Brian Pond (Thank you Anthony Hammerschmith!)
Don't forget about the big finale on Saturday September 9th. This will be a day full of action and excitement. We will be giving away 2 baskets this season!!

Get out here and collect those points, climb the leaderboard, and make sure you are at this big finale. It will be epic, as always.

A humorous way to describe the fact that no one was able to get a birdie on that last hole.
